A couple things to note here:

* Each of these export INPUTRC=foo lines is setting the INPUTRC
variable, so the second one overwrites the value set by the first one.
* You should not need either of these lines, since programs using
readline will know to read in from the .inputrc file in your home
directory by default
* I think if you do have an .inputrc in your home directory, any
entries in /etc/inputrc will not get read
